A furious night of glorious all-girl punk rock with the MACHETES (straight outta Toronto) and a vast angry slab of 60s garage rock'n'roll with THE SPIVS, plus a full crew of hard drinking DJs.
LIVE BANDS:
MACHETES
Straight out of Toronto, this all girl rock band mix up late 70's CBGBs with Blondie, Riot Grrrl, The Ramones and Detroit garage-punk. Expect full-on guitar thrash, shouty choruses and some great punk rock tunes.
"Glammed-up-punk princesses that deliver high-voltage intensity, rousing and sleazy, swaggering through a sweat-drenched revolution of style and urgency."
THE SPIVS
Currently recording with White Stripes producer Liam Watson, The Spivs are "one of the most talked about bands you've never heard off." Serving up a mixed up palette of oddball rock'n'roll, the high speed trio mash up the wild sounds of 50s rock'n'roll, 77 punk and 60s garage into a crazed ball of raw, high energy noise. Described as a collision between the early Cramps and The Scientists, The Spivs are a "must see for anyone, anywhere in the world, who thinks they dig real rock'n'roll music!"
"Wide-eyed rock'n'roll with a black heart of garage rock" HotGigsUK
